Narrator from Once Upon a time in... Hollywood:

"When you come to the end of the line, with a buddy who is more than a brother and a little less than a wife, getting blind drunk together is really the only way to say farewell."

Private Ryan from Saving Private Ryan

"Tell her that when you found me I was here and I was with the only brothers that I have left and that there was no way I was gonna desert them. I think she'll understand that. There's no way I'm leaving this bridge."

@Jessica,

For your consideration:

Boys Town (1938)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0029942/mediaviewer/rm96255490/ 

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0029942/quotes/?item=qt4869602 

Whitey Marsh: He's not heavy, he's my brother.

I have not found an image for the specific scene where this quote occurs, however, this image is representative.

The film 'Boys Town' (1938) is based on the real Boys Town in Boys Town, Nebraska.

The Origin at Boys Town

The phrase became synonymous with the organization in the early 1920s. According to Boys Town history, a boy named Howard Loomis, who had polio and wore leg braces, arrived at the home. Other older boys would take turns carrying him up the stairs.

When Father Flanagan, the founder, saw a boy named Reuben Granger carrying Howard and asked if it was hard work, Reuben famously replied: "He ain't heavy, Father, he's m' brother."

Use in the 1938 Film Boys Town

The film, starring Spencer Tracy as Father Flanagan and Mickey Rooney as a rebellious youth, used this sentiment to drive home its emotional core.

I split the list in two (one for movies and one for TV).

Congratulations, @Jessica!
